            <h3>Description of Dune II: The Building of a Dynasty</h3>
            <div class="gameDescription dscr">
            <p>Noticeably different from the adventure-strategy format of rival game <a href="https://www.myabandonware.com/game/dune-23h">Dune</a>, (also released by publisher Virgin Games in the same year), Westwood’s Dune II is widely considered the father of real-time strategy games. Although <a href="https://www.myabandonware.com/game/herzog-zwei-8bb">Herzog Zwei</a> predated it by several years, Dune II set a benchmark for RTS games that would become the norm for decades.</p>

<p>As a player you get to choose one of three houses and battle for control of the planet Arrakis, the only place in the universe where the mystical substance called spice is to be found. Harvesting spice from the sand dunes allows it to be refined and converted into credits. These are then spent on building units to aid you in your conquest, and “he who controls the spice controls the universe”.</p>

<p>Each of the houses has a distinct personality which is reflected by the units under their command. House Atreides favours guerrilla warfare and allies itself with the Freman, natives of Arrakis, while House Harkonnen uses its wealth to field armies of huge battle tanks. The final house, Ordos, favours stealth, saboteurs and chemical weapons.</p>

<p>Over the course of a multi-mission campaign you must first establish a base before attempting to overthrow the rival houses and take control of Arrakis and its Spice reserves, leading to one of three endings depending on the house you chose.</p>

<p>This game would mark the beginning of a gaming dynasty for Westwood. Building on the success of Dune II the critically acclaimed <a href="https://www.myabandonware.com/game/command-conquer-2r7">Command &amp; Conquer</a> followed leading to a RTS franchise which dominated the next decade.</p>
